need help. Grinding brake

My sisters car, 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
It sounds like metal to metal when braking. I checked the brake fluid level and its around the minimum.

The rotors look real messed up and rusty. Im thinking it could be brake pads but I'm also concerned about the rotors. She hit a big pot hole and popped the tire and dented the rim. She drove around 5-10 miles on the popped tire. (stupid woman) She has a new rim and tire but theres all this rust all over the rim now that i think is from the rotor.






Im going to take off the tire so i can take a closer look at the rotor and brake pads.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
